Architecture, as a discipline, is often understood as what is yet to be built. This thesis shifts attention to what is already lived. The Digital Living Room studies the domestic interior as a site of architectural knowledge. Through interviews, photography, and LiDAR scanning, four living rooms in Southern Sweden are documented as they were found: occupied, accumulated, and shaped by the habits a
Public oversight depends not only on public documents, but on traceable relations between them. This bachelor thesis examines how selected UKÄ legal-supervision findings and subsequent public governance documents produce different levels of public follow-up visibility. It asks what distinguishes cases where an oversight report makes expected action visible from cases where later public documents p
Today, digital pre-distortion (DPD) is the predominant technique for linearising the power amplifiers (PAs) used in telecommunication radio transmitters. However, conventional DPD implementations rely on power-hungry digital signal processing, making energy efficiency a critical concern. Compute in-memory (CiM) architectures have previously been demonstrated to provide significant efficiency gains
The concept of identity and a sense of belonging in a multicultural- and multiethnic society are complicated. The aim of this study was to examine how young Swedish-born women of foreign origin perceive their identity when they belong to two or several cultures. Six young women with foreign origin were interviewed through partly themed and semi-structured interviews to share their experience on ho
Cochabamba in Bolivia is an example of a city that faces increasing environmental problems and health risks due to insufficient sewage system coverage and municipal wastewater treatment. The situation is especially severe in peri-urban fast growing settlements. A decentralized alternative to conventional wastewater treatment plants is constructed wetlands with horizontal subsurface flow (HSF). Thi
Uppsatsen berör hur bevisvärderingen och resultatet av denna uttrycks i domskälen i avgöranden från kammarrätter och förvaltningsrätten i mål gäl-lande skattetillägg och mervärdesskatt, och vilka konsekvenser detta har för rättssäkerheten för den enskilde. Uppsatsen grundar sig på den senaste tidens kritik mot Skatteverket och skatteprocessen som bland annat Advokatsamfun-det och Rättvis skatteproThis thesis examines how the evaluation, and the results of such assessment, is articulated in the judicial reasonings delivered by the Administrative Courts of Appeal and Administrative Courts in cases regarding tax surcharges and value-added tax, as well as the implications this has for the taxpayer’s legal certainty. This thesis is prompted by recent criticism directed at the Swedish Tax Agency
This essay discusses the Nordic region Bohuslän the decade after it became "Swedish" in 1658, during what I call the region's "transition period". The wide cause of the study is to show how the traditional understanding of this state shift (and of state shifts in general) need to be problemized and understood in the light of the state conditions of Early Modern Europe. By e
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancer types and the leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) of the lung is the second most common histological subtype of lung cancer and the most prevalent in smokers. It is aggressive and hard to treat due to a lack of identified driver mutations and unresponsiveness to treatment. Finding new targeted therapies for SqCC is
We and others have previously shown that inhibitor containing plasma from patients with congenital haemophilia A sometimes reacts less with von Willebrand factor (VWF) containing concentrates compared with highly purified plasma-derived or recombinant factor VIII (FVIII) concentrates. To further substantiate the haemostatic role of a variation in inhibitor reactivity with different FVIII concentra
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Persistent organochlorine pollutants (POPs) have in epidemiological studies been associated with health hazards. The exposure window might be crucial and it is, accordingly, important to analyze exposure concentrations in samples collected at the window of interest. This makes the use of stored blood samples extremely interesting. However, small blood volumes from stored sampl
OBJECTIVE: To prospectively describe self-reported outcomes up to 5 years after total knee replacement (TKR) in Osteoarthritis (OA) and to study which patient-relevant factors may predict outcomes for pain and physical function (PF). METHODS: 102 consecutive patients with knee OA, 63 women and 39 men, mean age 71 (51-86) assigned for TKR at the Department of Orthopaedics at Lund University Hospita
Background: This paper describes the background, aim and study design for the Swedish SELMA study that aimed to investigate the importance of early life exposure during pregnancy and infancy to environmental factors with a major focus on endocrine disrupting chemicals for multiple chronic diseases/disorders in offspring. Methods: The cohort was established by recruiting women in the 10th week
The objective of this study was to estimate the tensile strength of surgical knots made using the da Vinci robot. Four different types of flat square knots (strand-to-strand 4 throw, strand-to-strand 6 throw, loop-to-strand 4 throw, and loop-to-strand 6 throw) were made using the da Vinci-S system by 4 different surgeons, all experienced with the system. For the knots, we used braided polyglactin
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to explore healthcare consumption in relation to more versus less knowledge concerning prescribed drugs among older people with functional dependency and repeated healthcare contacts, and to explore the determinants of more versus less knowledge METHODS: The sample comprised 63 persons (mean age 82.8 years). Data concerning use and knowledge about drugs, demograp
The Eleonora's Falcon Falco eleonorae breeds on islands and islets in the Mediterranean region and feeds its young on migratory birds caught in the air. The breeding season is scheduled to coincide with the peak of bird migration. Between 12 and 20 September 1997 we measured flight tracks of falcons within a range of 4 km from their breeding cliffs on Isola di San Pietro 6 km off the south-west co
The reasons why some individuals who experience trauma develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) while others do not remain poorly understood, highlighting the complex interplay of encoding-related and intrapersonal factors. This study aimed to examine factors predicting variability in trauma-related symptom development. Using a trauma-film paradigm in a healthy sample (N = 32), we investigate
Semiconductors are at the heart of modern living. Almost everything we do, be it work, travel, communication, or entertainment, all depend on some feature of semiconductor technology. Comprehensive Semiconductor Science and Technology, Second Edition, Three Volume Set captures the breadth of this important field and presents it in a single source to the large audience who study, make, and use semi
Utvärderingen visar att ersättningar för att sköta betesmarker och slåtterängar har en positiv men begränsad effekt på biologisk mångfald i form av fågelfauna och en sammansatt landskapsindikator. Andra stöd och ersättningar som utvärderades har mindre betydelse för dessa indikatorer. Utvärderingen poängterar dock behovet av förbättrad övervakning och data som möjliggör mer detaljerade utvärderingWe have evaluated the impact of the Rural Development Programme 2014–2022 and its support of measures benefitting biodiversity. Bird population sizes, using the Farmland Bird Index (FBI), serve as the main indicator of biodiversity, but the High Nature Value Farmland (HNV) indicator is also used. Our conclusions are:• A combination of approaches is required to evaluate the effects of agrienvironme
